3. A new table was constructed to try and identify the manufacturers of each product, given the significant discrepancies in the retailers' reporting. This table ("manufacturer_finder") has identified the likely supplier of around half of the products in the database, and can be used to track specific suppliers (producers/importers).

This dataset was created to analyze changes in prices in the Israeli grocery retail market. It was created based on the files retailers are legally required to upload, available here: https://www.gov.il/he/departments/legalInfo/cpfta_prices_regulations

The data is not complete and downloads increased gradually. Beginning in May 2020 there are sporadic files for three specific Shufersal stores. Starting in November 2021 Downloads increased, ~20-50 stores downloaded at various times from Shufersal, and ~5-10 stores downloaded from a few other retailers.

Different table for each retailer. The table "snifim" specifies the names for stores for Shufersal (in the main table you can find store_id which can be joined to the names).

Description of columns in the Prices tables: Filename - original file name (without the xml extension) store_id - ID of the store upload_date - date of file download. Upload dates before 2020 - unclear what they are, probably of stores which shut down.
PriceUpdateDate - Last date of price change of the item. ItemCode - a unique ID of the item. ItemName - name. ManufacturerName - manufacturer. These data are messy. ManufactureCountry - country of production. ManufacturerItemDescription - similar to ItemName UnitQty - unit of measure Quantity - quantity. UnitOfMeasure - also unit of measure ItemPrice - price (NIS) UnitOfMeasurePrice - price divided by quantity AllowDiscount - boolean/dummy variable.
